Description

This picture is featured in my rat photography book Fancy Rats - Portraits and Stories published by Amherst Media

An Autumn themed background for Feirefiz and his beautiful mother, Stella. These two are just too cute!

Feirefiz, fawn hooded standard rat, born October the 23rd, 2010.

A very good friend of mine has taken care of a litter of 12 ratties which were meant to be used to feed snakes... she is searching for good homes for them and I went to take some shots of the babies to try to make some of my friends' hearts melt. 
These babies are just too cute, very very sweet and cuddly, very friendly too, even with people they don't know :heart:
Feirefiz is the laziest one of them, he'd rather sleep than eat or play... He LOVES cuddles ! :slow:


Stella, black berkshire standard rat (with a spot on her head), born April 2010.

She is a shy but sweet rat, I love her! She wasn't used to be handled at all as she was only used to "produce snake food" but she soon became quite sweet and slowly learns to trust people. She even asked for cuddles yesterday, she allowed me to pet her for at least 10 minutes, she was even shattering of happiness :heart:
